Michelin Guide "Modern, minimalist hotel on a quiet residential street in an elegant district."
Frommer's "The Periscope is a concept hotel with an unusual concept: surveillance." Full review
Concierge "This contemporary design hotel may be more suited for solitary business travelers than couples on vacation."
Fodor's "This sleek concept hotel combines minimalist urban-chic design, amenity-filled rooms, and exceptional service for a truly relaxing experience." Full review
Travel + Leisure "The periscope mounted on top of this 21-room boutique hotel in elegant Kolonaki means even the ground-floor bar gets an aerial view of Athens (displayed on a TV screen)." Full review
DK Eyewitness "Just a 5-minute walk from Kolonaki Square, this smart design hotel opened in 2005. All rooms have wooden floors and minimalist furniture in blacks, greys and whites."
Rough Guide "Designer minimalism on a shopping street in Kolonáki; the name refers to a periscope camera set up on the roof, which guests can control and view the pictures."
Star Service "As much an outpost for hip Athenians as for travelers, this artistic haute-spot has been transformed from relatively banal boarding house...into a trendy magnate." Full review
OysterMid-Range
"In the posh Kolonaki neighborhood, about a 12-minute walk to Syntagma Square and Mount Lycabetus. The hotel is modern, sleek, and minimalist." Full review
Afar Magazine "Kolonaki is the affluent neighbourhood of Athens, but it's by no means a stuffy one." Full review

Insight Guides "This welcoming, family-run pension has an enviably quiet, yet convenient location... great value – book well in advance."
Fodor's "This popular and recently renovated guesthouse has a steady clientele... thanks to guests who don't mind the fact that this spot is a little off the tourist circuit." Full review
DK Eyewitness "The helpful Nikoloulias family’s pension has an enviable location on a quiet cul-de-sac."
Rough Guide "The best value in Koukáki, family run and friendly. Simple rooms with and without private bath, with fans and a/c (for extra charge). It’s often full, so call ahead. €45."
EuroCheapo Editor's Pick
"Located down a little alleyway well off Anastasiou Zinni in the relaxed 'hood of Koukaki, the one-star Marble House provides an exceptionally quiet budget bed." Full review
OysterBudget

Lonely Planet Top Choice
"Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac is one of Athens’ best-value budget hotels." Full review
